The Brothel Within
the fire of lust
consuming our soul
enslaved by carnal desire
testosterone driven lowly ghoul
desire birthing raging obsession
our mind dwelling in a brothel
addicted like an alcoholic
to sexual cravings feral
animal in human form
in this game of domination
finally discerning love from lust
in stillness of prayerful meditation
recognising senses have two aspects
we attempted polarity rotation
between outer and inner
in void of cessation
our primal instinct
a tsunami overpowering
burning us from deep within
yet recedes whilst we are praying
allowing ego urges to arise like bubbles
we view them with childlike curiosity
in wonder and astonishment
marvelling their tenacity
thus viewing mind body
as but an earth life interface
we shut down our lower ego mind
embracing love and light by Gods grace
